Bone Densitometry Examination

Our scanner provides an accurate measurement of the total cortical and trabecular mineral content of the hip and spine.

The bone densitometer will measure your bone mineral density. It will also compare your measurements to a referred population based on your age, weight, sex and ethnic background.
